The former NATO base Back Yard was built during the Cold War. The structure was intended to host military functions and strategic communication systems within the organization of Allied forces in Europe.
The complex mainly develops underground and includes internal environments, corridors, and technical rooms designed to ensure the continuity of operational activities and communications. Its location within the mountain responded to needs for protection and security, typical characteristics of military infrastructures of the time.
The base is a testimony to the strategic role assumed by the Veronese territory in the context of the Cold War and represents an example of 20th-century underground military architecture.
